Thank you Dom, I appreciate it.

The circles are quite unique, but maybe they exist on another blade, in a more legible form. If such a blade surfaces at some point in the future, it may help with the translation of this one. Or at least this is all we can hope for.

Thanks again Dom and Zifir for your help.

My Bulgarian friend, who collects yataghans, has asked me to post three of his latest acquisitions here with the hope of getting the blade inscriptions translated.
Many thanks in advance,
Teodor

Hi Teodor,
Pretty standard inscriptions, accompanied by my haphazard translations

Best,

Zifir, thank you very much, excellent as always. I really appreciate the effort you have put in placing the translation text on the pictures: this thread is slowly becoming a database of inscriptions.
Regards,
Teodor

Perhaps I should post my Yataghan here as well, to make it a one stop archive. My apologies if this is redundant, If I had seen this thread earlier I would have posted here only. The buffalo horn grip scales are a replacement made by me in a style I am familiar with from a yataghan I owned some years ago. The originals were gone, and had been replaced with painted plaster.
